An Aged Mailman
MR. HENRY MILLER, AGED 82
YEARS, OF FLORIN, STRUCK
AND DIED IN THE GENER.
ERAL HOSPITAL.
Mr. Henry Miller, aged 82 years,
was fatally injured near his home at
Florin about 7:15 Monday night
when struck by a motorcycle. He
died at 7 o'clock yesterday morning
in the Lancaster General Hospital,
to which institution he was rushed
in the ambulance soon after the ac-
cident.
Mr. Miller, for many years an em-
ploye of the Florin post office, was
on his way with a mail sack from
the station to the post office when
the accident happened. In crossing
the street in front of the Florin
Trust Company he failed to notice
the aproach of a motorcycle, driven
by Maurice Gainor, of Elizabeth
town, going west, and Gainor ap-
parently did not see the aged man
despite the fact that he carried in
one hand a lighted lantern, as was
his custom at night. A footrest on
the motorcycle struck the pedestrian
and threw him to the ground and the
machine toppled over onto him, in-
flicting further injuries. Mr. Mil-
ler’s leg was broken and he suffer-
ed internal hurts.
With the assistance of Gainor and
several passersby the man was car-
ried to his home and Dr. Winfield M.
Thome, deputy coroner, of this boro,
was summoned. He advised im-
mediate removal to the hospital.
Mr. Miller made his home | with
his daughter, Mrs. Josephine Myers,
at Florin. In addition to the daugh-
ter he is survived by two grandchild-
ren. Theodore Myers, an employe
of Bachman Chocolate Company,
and Miss Pearl Myers a school tea-
cher, both of whom reside at home.
The body was taken in charge at
the hospital by Undertaker H. C.
Brunner, of this place, who prepared
it for burial.
He was aged 82 years, 5 months
and 27 days. Deceased was a shoe-
maker by occupation and conduc-
ted a repair shop in Florin for many
years. He is the last of his family.
The funeral will be held from
his late home Friday afternoon at
two o'clock. Interment will be
made in the burial grounds at Cross
Roads church.

I must compliment you upon
the quick-action result from the
Bulletin ad. For results and
quick response it can’t be beat.
I was more than surprised at
the results I received from my
double-page ad in last week's issue
During the first half hour of my
sale on Friday, Feb. 20, I sold 47
Army blankets, 27 doz. men’s

I must offer an apology to my

disappointed, but I hope I will be
able to supply your demand this

Yours,

Fire Destroys a |
Large Warehouse
MR. ISAAC SIEGRIST, EXTEN.
SIVE PACKER OF NEAR
HERE, SUSTAINS A
LOSS OF ABOUT
$35,000.00
Fire of unknown origin early
Monday morning destroyed the
frame tobacco warehouse, with all
contents, owned by Isaac C. Siegrist
at Farmdale, about three miles
south of this place.
The loss will amount to $35,000
Mr. Siegrist said, but of this dam-
age the value of 450 cases of to-
bacco, which burned in the blaze,
will be recovered through insurance.
No insurance was carried cn the
building.
Although the cause of the fire
could not be determined, it is be-
lieved to have been incendiary in
nature. Mr. Siegrist, who lives at
Mount Joy R. D., declared he was
unable to understand how the blaze
could have started by natural causes.
At 3:30 o’clock Monday morning
Mrs. Samuel Heisey, who resides
near the burned warehouse, happen-
ed to glance toward the structure
and saw it in flames. Just a half
hour earlier her daughter had also
looked toward the warehouse and
at that time no flames were visible.
Mrs. Heisey at once summoned aid
but nothing could be done to save
the building or its valuable contents.
Siegrist and Habecker had packed
the 450 cases of tobacco and these
were ready for delivery.

SILVER SPRINGS MAN
KILLS TWO SNAKES
Two large snakes were killed at
the spring of Howard Greider, of
Silver Springs, by James M. Hubley,
who went to the spring for a drink
one day last week.
The snakes evidently came out of
their hiding place the warm days
earlier in the week and when the
weather became colder were unable
to get back to their winter sleeping
quarters. Mr. Hubley had no trou-
ble in killing the serpents as they
were too cold to do more than strike
at him.
The older residents say that spring
is at hand and that there will be
very little cold weather any more
this season, or the snakes never
would have come from their sleep-
ing place.
